A Titanic Experience Online :: History Movies Essays

A Titanic Experience Online Through off all of the years I had go to school I had hear the word Titanic probably only five times. All I k newly of this ship was that it sank and many people died. That was literally the uttermost of my knowledge about this ship. One day a friend of mine, who does a little work on movies once in a while, told me about this new movie they were making called Titanic. He brought in some pictures of the huge sight that was built. I looked at the pictures and listened to him talk about how grandiose the ship set was. At the time I was wondering how they could possibly make an interesting movie about a ship that hit an iceberg and sank. I unbroken thinking more along the lines of a documentary sort of film. Nothing sounded unfeignedly interesting to me. About a year after I had heard about this movie, I saw the first movie preview. To my surprise it was a love story as well as the story of the tragedy. The story attracted me so much that I wanted to ve rify the movie the first day it came out. The day finally came and I took, or should I say dragged, my boyfriend to see it with me. From the second it started I was completely mesmerized by the movie. The music, the characters, the set, it was all so wonderful. There was a point in the movie that I was crying and I even forgot that my boyfriend was there with me. He turned to me and asked me why I was crying. I simply turned to him and said, Shhhh. I didnt want him to ruin the mood. As we walked out of the theater I found myself to be a little depressed. The sadness of the tragedy was still on my mind. The next day I woke up and as I lay in bed the feeling of sadness had not gone away. It was from that moment on that this tragic event in history really came to be a part of my life.
